Devils Tower doesn't exist in FS02 but I think you can get an addon for it.

Mt. Rushmore is one of the default flights - if you don't mind flying past it ini a C-172

For other airports and interesting flights try

http://www.fsdestinations.com/index.php and
dangerous-airports.com (doesn't seem to be on line at the moment).

Or start a flight in Castlegar, BC, Canada (CYCG). Be sure you select clear weather and climb out of the valley before heading off to explore. (MEA's around 9000 ft IFR)
AMD 64 X2-5200, NVidia 9600GT 512, 2048 DDR, 2x250 GB SATA, Saitek X45, Win XP SP3 (Win7-64bitRC1 and FSX on 2nd HD)

If you enjoy flying in the mountains, I suggest downloading 'terrain mesh' add-ons, if you havent already done so. These greatly improve the topography.

The Simviation 'global terrain mesh' is available from the main download page.

Or search downloads for 'Holger Sandmann'. He has many excellent freeware meshes available. In particular, his BC Mesh will make Dodgers suggested flight awsome.

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.

I assume that you checked out the "Select a Flight " section in FS2002.
